NEW ORLEANS (AP) -The NBA is reviewing a hard foul by David West that resulted in the ejection of the Hornets’ All-Star from a game against Minnesota on Sunday night.
NBA spokesman Tim Frank confirmed Monday that the league is reviewing the play for possible punishment with a ruling expected before the Hornets were scheduled to play Monday night at Memphis. West could be fined, suspended or both.
The Timberwolves’ Mike Miller was driving to the hoop late in the second quarter when West chopped his right arm down over Miller’s right shoulder from behind, catching Miller in the face with a forearm. Miller dropped to the floor and remained down for several seconds, but remained in the game with no apparent injury.
